Free Practice Questions for Microsoft DP-600 Exam

For ingesting customer data into the data store in the AnalyticsPOC workspace, a dataflow (D) should be recommended. Dataflows are designed within the Power BI service to ingest, cleanse, transform, and load data into the Power BI environment. They allow for the low-code ingestion and transformation of data as needed by Litware's technical requirements. References = You can learn more about dataflows and their use in Power BI environments in Microsoft's Power BI documentation.

The measure should use the AVERAGE function to calculate the average value.

It should reference the Response Value column from the 'Survey' table.

The 'Number of months' should be used to define the period for the average calculation.

To calculate the average overall satisfaction score using DAX, you would need to use the AVERAGE function on the response values related to satisfaction questions. The DATESINPERIOD function will help in calculating the rolling average over the last 12 months.

A lakehouse (C) should be recommended for the AnalyticsPOC workspace. It combines the capabilities of a data warehouse with the flexibility of a data lake. A lakehouse supports semi-structured and unstructured data and allows for T-SQL and Python read access, fulfilling the technical requirements outlined for Litware. References = For further understanding, Microsoft's documentation on the lakehouse architecture provides insights into how it supports various data types and analytical operations.

You need to ensure that Contoso can use version control to meet the data analytics requirements and the general requirements.

Requirement: “All the semantic models and reports for the Research division must use version control that supports branching.”

Fabric supports Git integration (Azure Repos or GitHub) for semantic models and reports.

Storing in Data Lake Gen2 or OneDrive does not provide version control with branching.

The correct action is to integrate workspaces with a Git repository.

Answer: D. Modify the settings of the Research division workspaces to use an Azure Repos repository.

Comprehensive Detailed Explanation

From the case study:

Research division data for Productline2 is currently in CSV format in storage2.

Requirement: “All the Research division data in the lakehouses must be presented as managed tables in Lakehouse explorer.”

In Fabric lakehouses, managed tables are stored in Delta format inside the Tables folder.

Step 1: Reading the source

df = spark.read.format("csv") \

options(header="true", inferSchema="true") \

load("abfss://storage1.dfs.core.windows.net/files/productline2")

This correctly ingests the CSV source from ADLS Gen2.

Step 2: Writing to Lakehouse as a managed table

You must write the data in Delta format to ensure it is queryable and managed within the lakehouse.

The correct path is under Tables/, because this is where Fabric automatically manages Lakehouse managed tables.

The target table should be named productline2, so the correct path is:

df.write.mode("overwrite").format("delta").save("Tables/productline2")

Why not other options?

CSV or Parquet formats would not create a managed Lakehouse table; they would just create files.

Writing to productline2 directly (without Tables/) would store unmanaged files in the Lakehouse Files area, not managed tables.

Writing to Tables/research/productline2 adds an unnecessary subdirectory and is not the standard structure for managed tables.

Correct Final Code

df.write.mode("overwrite").format("delta").save("Tables/productline2")

Comprehensive Detailed Explanation

The requirement is to logically group the Research division workspaces and support filtering in the OneLake data hub.

Why Domain?

Microsoft Fabric allows you to assign workspace domains (e.g., Finance, HR, Research).

This provides a logical grouping of workspaces within the organization.

Domains are the only supported way to enable filtering in OneLake data hub by department.

Capacity or tenant grouping would not allow filtering by department in OneLake.

Why OneLake data hub?

The OneLake data hub is the centralized interface to browse and discover data assets across the organization.

With workspace domains configured, users can filter directly in the OneLake data hub by domain (e.g., “Research”).

The Fabric Admin portal and Entra admin center are used for administration, not for workspace filtering in data discovery.

Correct Selection for the Hotspot

Grouping method: Domain

Tool: OneLake data hub

References

Final Answer:

Grouping method = Domain

Tool = OneLake data hub

You need to recommend which type of Fabric capacity SKU meets the data analytics requirements for the Research division.

Requirement: “The Research division workspaces must use a dedicated, on-demand capacity that has per-minute billing.”

Fabric capacity SKUs:

F (Fabric) = dedicated Fabric capacity, available on pay-as-you-go with per-minute billing.

P (Premium) and EM are Power BI capacities (not Fabric-native).

A refers to Azure Analysis Services capacity.

The only correct option is F SKU.

 Calculation groups are a Tabular Object Model (TOM) feature.

 They cannot be authored in Power BI Desktop or the service.

 They are implemented using Tabular Editor.

Requirement: “The number of rows added to the Orders table during refreshes must be minimized.”

The Orders table has a sequential OrderID.

To minimize refresh size, you must only import new rows, not the entire table.

This requires retrieving the maximum OrderID currently loaded, then only loading rows with a greater OrderID.

So, the correct solution is to use a pipeline (ADF) with a dataflow to retrieve the maximum OrderID.

Answer: C. an Azure Data Factory pipeline that executes a dataflow to retrieve the maximum value of the OrderID column in the destination lakehouse
